I got it with the motor out and all the nuts and bolts in the airbox.
The tank is a little rusty on the outside and there is a little crack on the rear fender.
I'm looking for a new front fender because this one is all hacked up.
We tore the motor apart and found something squished between the head and piston. I think it might have been part of a spark plug.
I cleaned up the piston and head with a wire wheel and put it back together. After cleaning the carb it fired right up :)
It has a Wiseco piston and the cylinder looks like it was just rebuilt.
The tires are in great shape.
What colour should the tank be. I want to paint it white.
Not too bad for $200

I'll be keeping the fender but thanks for the offer. Is there anyway to fix the curled up seat.
I thought I read something about heating it with a heat gun and pushing it back down ?
Anyone know if that method works.
I was thinking of putting on some larger tires for playing in the mud. Does anyone have pictures with 25-12-9 tires.

Nope not normal , those are LOW profile maier fenders and they sit a few inches lower than std fenders . They were made for small tires around 18" . I'm suprised the 22" tires on their arnt rubbing ?

I have to agree. I bet it is very close to rubbing with rider weight added.

You ever want to sell those fenders you message me.....lol I come to Barrie/Bobcaygeon every year for Labor Day!! Great beer!!! Pigeon Lake. Maybe we could share a couple chillies and shoot the breeze sometime??? Nice score....I always see a big red up there at the sweetcorn farm along side the road. That area just strikes me as some hidden treasure of a trike buried in one of those old barns....I just know it!! Great score. dang sure for where you are at.

I wish you guys were local. I would swap you for a higher fender. I really want some big tires on this bike.
Shipping would be crazy from Canada.
Make sure you let me know when your around.
My fridge is always well stocked

I need to do some carb tunning this weekend. Its hard to start sometimes. I filled the carb with seafoam.
Hopefully that will clean it out.

very nice score and in canada! apparently my fellow canadians think trikes are worth more than gold so that trike will easily fetch 800$ on kijiji

There is NO need for such large tires to play in the mud. Get the right tread and you can plow through mud all day. I'm running Maxxis All-Traks on my 200x, 22". Even in thick mud it plows through.

but I think you should get yourself a BigRed or something with better gearing for mud.
